new cst lift installed!

[swamp_life hemi 05]

I love the lift, I was debating on getting rid of my RC and switching to this one. the only concerns I would have is the angle your balljoints and swaybar links have with this lift?

Looks sweeeet! I agree tho, I bet they did tear those boots, When I was puttin on my drop spindles I was about to tear mine tryin to get the ball joints out, thats when I just stopped and took it to Nfamus to get them to do it hahaha, but hopefully they'll own up to it so you can get them fixed. Nevertheless, your truck is sweet!

Looks great, Ill have to look into this lift kit. It looks nice. Is it only new spindles, and springs?

yes the spindles and coils were all it took up front install was easy took me and the two guys at the shop about 3 3 1/2 hours and we were done, really easy install except one of the guys ripped the boot but its hard not to when getting the tie rod loose, overall though the lift is stout the spindles that come in the kit are like bullet proof compared to the factory one plus it has a nice black powdercoated finish that looks good great kit IMO angles actually dont look bad to me either

yes they did i called and asked about it and they said they tore them but ''not to worry about it, just keep grease in them'' and I got kinda pissed because they should cover those since they are the ones who tore them but owell not really much i can do

 

[HemiBabe]

Whaaaaaaat they aint gonna pay to fix em?? How is grease supposed to stay in them when they're ripped, and the hole might get bigger? Thats BS i would be pissed too... mannnn

with only the spindles, all front end components stay at stock geometry. with the added coils, in my opinion, it does put the front ball joints at too extreme of an angle. but there are a few companies out there that make upper control arms to fix that problem. especially for the 1500s

I know about the upper control arms, I was thinking to upgrade to some. It's the lower that looks at a really bad angle. Lol

oh yeah, and from your pics, it looks like they used a pickle fork to remove them

Ya I know, sucks they won't fix it when they even admit to messing it up don't even get me started lol, and the angles really arnt bad atleast not IMO I guess time will tell. But I do love the way the lift looks and turned out aside from the boots

 

[swamp_life hemi 05]

Truck looks great though, hopefully nothing wears out. That's the 7" lift isn't it?

Droid Incredible 2 on the move!

 

[ramin44s]

yes this is the 7'' kit, i did alot of research on forums and have talked to people with this lift and have never heard a negative thing so i really think it will hold up well. it sits higher than i was expecting its not much smaller than my buddies 02 duramax with a 8'' lift and 37s

 

[swamp_life hemi 05]

Yea with my rc lift and the 3" coil spacers on top of that, with stock tires I'm 10 inches over a stock 05 2wd.....
